About Emily

LMHC in New York with 13 years of clinical experience. Emily Moley focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, addictions, and parenting challenges. She uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused methods, Existential ideas, and Trauma-Focused Therapy in her practice.

Emily meets people where they are and starts by listening. She favors straightforward conversation and practical steps. Sessions look at what is causing daily distress and which patterns keep problems repeating.

Her background includes a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from St. John Fisher College and work in outpatient mental health settings early in her career. In 2014 she became a Licensed Mental Health Counselor - LMHC - in New York. She later provided group and individual treatment for people with co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns.

She spent nearly six years working for the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision. There she provided mental health and substance use treatment to incarcerated people and developed a strong clinical focus on trauma, abandonment, trust, guilt, shame, family dynamics, and parenting issues.

In sessions she aims to help clients identify their own answers and practical coping skills. Work often involves processing past hurt, testing new ways of relating, and reducing unhelpful patterns like avoidance or impulsive reactions. She helps people build skills for everyday life and replace older coping strategies that no longer serve them.

How her approaches shape remote sessions

Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and responding to the person in front of the therapist. It emphasizes respect for a person’s perspective and helps people clarify what matters to them and what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It suits concerns like anxiety, depression, mood swings, and coping with day-to-day stressors. Trauma-Focused Therapy targets how past trauma affects current functioning. It involves careful processing of traumatic memories and building safer ways to manage triggers and intense emotions.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and what feels most useful. Expect the method to be reviewed and adjusted over time based on the person’s needs and preferences.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Therapists generally adapt exercises, homework, and skill practice so they work across distance and in daily routines.
